Among them, the Chinese airlines involved include Air China, Capital Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Hainan Airlines, Sichuan Airlines, and Xiamen Airlines. If the US airlines increase their flights equally, the number of flights between China and the United States is expected to increase to 70 per week.
